ABSTRACT The microevolution of Alu element TPA-25 was tested in the experiment through the examination‚ observation‚ and analysis of population alleles distribution under the Hardy-Weinberg Theory of Genetic Equilibrium. Alu elements affect the genome by causing insertion mutations‚ recombination between elements‚ gene conversion‚ and alterations in gene expression. In the lab PCR was used to amplify a short piece of DNA from human genome which allowed us to look for a DNA sequence called an Alu
